You often see some fantastic tiled surfaces transformations in lifestyle and home decoration magazines. This customer, who lives in Stockton Heath, had recently seen a feature in which an area of white kitchen tiles had been transformed by changing the white grout to a charcoal coloured grout, giving it a new and particularly striking appearance.

Very impressed with the result, she wanted to know if Tile Doctor could do the same for her white kitchen tiles, which covered the majority of the room. I told her that not only could we do it – we could do it even better in the space of a day!

Here’s how we did it.

Cleaning and Recolouring White Kitchen Tiles

Our process for recolouring grout involves an application of a pre-treatment cleaner to ensure a complete refresh of both the grout and tiles. This pre-treatment cleaner removes any dirt and stains, as well as prepares the the grout joints for a superior bond with the Grout Colourant. I applied this carefully and scrubbed it in using a specialised grout brush, before drying the area with a heat gun.

It was then time to apply Charcoal Gray Grout Colourant, one of the options from our range of 10 Grout Colourants that includes Black, Ivory, and Cappuccino. Our Grout Colourant is an easy-to-use waterborne epoxy that not only recolours grout joints, but also seals and rejuvenates them to guarantee their long-term protection. This was applied using a good old fashioned toothbrush, and any excess was swiftly removed.

To complete the process I removed the old silicone around the windows and worktops and replaced with a fresh batch. When the customer saw the finished result she was over the moon. She thought this kind of transformation could only be made with difficulty and at a high cost but we showed that it’s a very simple and cost-effective process for any home owner.

Excellent service throughout. In depth email reply explaining the process. Available on a day that was convenient to me. Reasonable quote in advance. Timely arrival. Professional attitude. Really pleased with the finished condition of the floor. Went the extra mile with finishing touches that I hadn't previously mentioned but were no bother to him. Had an issue with water leaving a mark on the sealant a few days later but Alastair came back within 24hrs and spent a couple of hours repairing it FOC. Really impressed and delighted by the service. Will definitely recommend and/or use again where possible. Many Thanks.Tom Lowcock, Chester18 May 2016

Al was extremely courteous and hard working on what turned out to be a longer job than expected. He completely re did part of the floor at my request and did not try to charge me although it was my fault. I think he is a credit to tile doctor and would happily recommend him to all.
